Question Would you change anything? (AMD PC)

[Nicholas86]

Hello, I'm building my AMD PC for gaming and VR. Is an AMD build.


AMD RYZEN 9 5950X 4.9GHZ 16 CORES 64MB 105W

ASUS ROG STRIX B550-E GAMING BOX ATX AM4

KINGSTON 32GB DDR4 3600MHZ FURY RENEGADE RGB 2X16 (X2)

SSD 2TB KINGSTON M.2 NVME KC3000 7000MB/S (X2)

GIGABYTE RX 6900 XT 16GB AORUS MASTER

EVGA 850W GA SUPERNOVA 80 PLUS GOLD 70.8A 6X 6+2

WATER COOLING CPU CORSAIR H100I ELITE CAPELLIX 240MM ICUE

THERMALTAKE LEVEL 20 RS MIDTOWER ARGB

Do you see any bottlenecks? or something to improve?

Best Regards!

I did not buy it yet,

Do you recommend the INTEL CORE I7-12700K 12C 20T 5.0GHZ 190W 1700 or which one? and I would guess that with an intel you recommend an nvidia RTX 3080 TI.

Also, which Z690 GAMING mobo do you recommend? I see a lot of them.

you can still pair the 6900xt GPU with an Intel CPU.

There is one caveat to differences between X570 and B550. The X570 was released and every model I can think of was released Before USB-C was really a thing. The B550 came afterwards by a good many months. What that meant was many B550 have 1 extra header. A header that will connect to a front i/o USB type C and get the Full power delivery potential and Full bandwidth and speeds, which a USB 3.2 does not.

So if you have a case with a type C port on the front/top, a B550 can use it whereas a X570 can use it, gimped. Intel mobo's also can have a type C compatible header.

Stay away from Thermaltake in general, they have very few items that are better than mediocre.
